The transaction log file gets deleted followed by an attempt to rename the same file: > PANIC: rename from /var/pgsql/data/pg_xlog/0000000D000000A7 to /var/pgsql/data/pg_xlog/0000000D000000B0 (initialization of log file 13, I tried to raise the question on pg-hackers forum and cygwin forum (regarding readdir() misbehavior) but could not get any help so far :( It seems like Postgres is not stable enough on Cygwin platform. We have to consider moving either to a different platform (Linux?) or to a different DB under Windows. -----Original Message----- From: Sarah Valentine Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 12:03 PM Subject: Re: postgres panic error Sorry for not getting back to you promptly, I got pulled unto something else. 1&2. We have a application running on windows that connects to ps. Our app has a pool of ps connections within it connected to one db with 30 tables. We can have 1...n connections operating at any one time, usually we have 2-3. 3. The examples I have do not have timestamps so it is hard to tell what 3exactly precedes the PANIC.
